Why do nice guys finish last?

IMHO, any women that goes for a bad guy or mean person isn't worth your time.

Then again, different people have a different view on what "bad" is...

But then if you're a good guy, would she be taking up your time

Im sure there are other altenativs then those, right?

I think these are just simplified extremes....yes, there are nice guys that aren't totally shy and quiet, and their are bad guys that aren't throwing themselves at every physically attractive girl.

The trick to finding a partner is to stop looking for one. Focus on doing the things that you like doing, and you'll soon meet like-minded people. Even then, focus on being friends with them first. Game-playing is for soap operas. Be open, honest, and not desperate. Be comfortable with being alone and happy to be with others. Be. Just be. OMG! I accidentally COMMunicated! What was I thinking!

BS is right, BE is not COMMunicating...

...but you still COMMunicated anyway.

Nice guys, IMO, should be the last...

...the last man in a woman's life.

Definition of "bad" is quite ambiguous. There is the "evil" bad and the "cool" bad. I think women get attracted to the latter because of the unpredictability and excitement.

However, after all has been said and done, they would like to end up with a nice guy.

I would not wish to make anyone leave a thread, so I apologize if I've done anything to cause that.

I perhaps answered your question in a closed fashion, but not intentionally.

I see, I was just wondering. So would *your friends* pass up the nice guy that can't dance then?

Well, regarding the friends I mentioned WHO ARE LOOKING for nice men in dance clubs, I would say yes and no.

One is almost a professional dancer, spending most of her time in the gym or dancing...it would be hard to say that it would be 'shallow' for her to look for a man who at least will try to dance, being that dancing is such a large part of her life.

Does that answer better?

So in other words, Nice guys may lose all the battles, but they still win the war.

I would agree with that!

What war? What are you guys talking about? I look around and I don't see men strutting around in chain mail carrying shields! *mutters to herself*

What happens if you enjoy fighting battles?

Once the war is won, you still have to win the peace.

Hey Grunt, think of it like this...

Gruntlette: *gives you the shy/embarassed look while girlishly making a circular motion with her left foot on the ground, hands clasped* "Urm... Grunt, dear... I was, you know thinking... well, honey I was wrong about stuff... and well, I want you back.

You know, I came to realize that you're the best thing that ever happened to me, and..."

The peace will naturally follow, and what happens next is up to you.
